Press Junketeer  Posts: 444 Joined: 23 Nov 2008     | Congratulations unto thee, NewClassic. My vote was the one which swayed the entire election. :) EDIT: And, of course, congratulations to all others who were in the contest in the first place. I definitely couldn't have placed in the finals, or maybe I could... |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 857 Joined: 22 Jun 2008    | Congrats, NewClassic - Your review was definitely worthy of a custom title! Also, thanks, to the people that put on this contest. They're always great fun. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1077 Joined: 26 Apr 2008   | Heh. I knew I'd have a hard time against NewClassic and some lot of others as soon as I saw they'd entered. Anyway, Well done to NewClassic, the other contestants, Nilcypher and all the other people working behind the scenes. (EDIT: And anyone who voted for me. Can't forget you guys. You were awesome.) Just to badger you a little Nilcypher, do you have any idea when the next Review Arena will be, or what the topic will be? |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3322 Joined: 23 Oct 2007  | Well done, NewClassic. It was a hard fight, but you prevailed in the end. Also, with two of my biggest competitors out of the way, the competition narrows in my quest to acquire a custom title. With my luck, the next competition will either be on a game that I end up loathing so much that it won't even be worth the custom title to sum up, a game which I cannot at all write succinctly on, or a game which I can't even play on my current hardware. There's also the possibility that I get so flooded with work that I have no chance to play the game. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2166 Joined: 23 Dec 2007  | LET THE SPECULATION BEGIN! I anticipate the next title to be reviewed is going to be a classic rather than a new game. One with system requirement low so everybody can play it. Oh, and congrats NewClassic. I'm still bitter about not winning. |

I wasn't even part of it and I'm bitter. |
Vault Legend  Posts: 2202 Joined: 30 Jul 2008  | Thanks everyone, I'm incredibly excited that I've won. I feel it's more a function of luck than merit, though. As far speculation goes, I'm guessing it will be another "Best ______" contest. Likely for either a genre, or a game from a period (80's, 90's, console generation, etc.). That's my speculation, anyway. Congratulations to everyone who participated, I had an absolute blast in this competition, and hope that everyone else did as well. It's been fun, and I look forward to seeing everyone participate in the next contest. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1873 Joined: 13 Jan 2008   | So... What's the custom title? It's almost a prerequisite for it to be about robots. Perhaps "Forum Protectron", though that might seem a little like a mod... |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1016 Joined: 19 Nov 2008    | i think it should be Forum Raider or something Fallout-ish |

On the Record  Posts: 5674 Joined: 2 Dec 2007    | Nuke gets to be a Vault Legend? I guess it's quit fitting. Nuke Lassic always reminded me of Nuka Cola. But *hmph* to you all! I should have won this! 'Twas rigged I tell ya! Well, that and the fact I didn't enter. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2892 Joined: 6 Mar 2008  | Congrats, Nuke. Well done, and well done to all participants. And I will continue living vicariously through the winners of custom titles, because my writing is, in a word, shit. |
